Describes the Oracle Data Guard broker, a management and monitoring interface that automates many of the tasks involved in configuring and monitoring standby databases in an Oracle Data Guard configuration.

Provides a comprehensive overview of Oracle Data Guard concepts and describes how to configure and implement standby databases that can take over production operations if your production database becomes unusable. This guide includes several database scenarios such as creating, recovering, failing over, switching over, configuring, and backing up standby and primary databases.

Explains how to use the SQL interface to Oracle Data Mining to create models and score data. This Guide also addresses administrative issues such as security, import/export, and upgrade for Oracle Data Mining.

Provides conceptual, reference, and implementation material for using Oracle Database in data warehousing. It covers the full range of data warehousing activities, from physical database design to advanced calculation techniques.

Describes Oracle globalization support for the database. Explains how to set up a globalization support environment, choose and migrate a character set, customize locale data, do linguistic sorting, program in a global environment, and program with Unicode.

Provides configuration information for network and system administrators, and database installation information for database administrators (DBAs) who install and configure Oracle Database, and Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a standalone server on HP-UX systems.

Provides configuration information for network and system administrators, and database installation information for database administrators (DBAs) who install and configure Oracle Database, and Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a standalone server on IBM AIX on POWER Systems (64-Bit).

Provides configuration information for network and system administrators, and database installation information for database administrators (DBAs) who install and configure Oracle Database and Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a standalone server on Linux.

Provides configuration information for network and system administrators, and database installation information for database administrators (DBAs) who install and configure Oracle Database and Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a standalone server on Windows.

Provides configuration information for network and system administrators, and database installation information for database administrators (DBAs) who install and configure Oracle Database, and Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a standalone server on Oracle Solaris.

Guides you through the process of planning and performing upgrades for Oracle Database. This book also provides information about compatibility, upgrading applications, and changes in the new release that affect upgrading Oracle Database.

Provides dynamic load balancing, failover, and centralized service management for a set of replicated databases that offer common services. The set of databases can include Oracle Real Application Clusters (Oracle RAC) and noncluster Oracle databases interconnected through Oracle Data Guard, or any other replication technology.

Describes how to install and upgrade grid infrastructure for a cluster software, which includes Oracle Clusterware and Oracle Automatic Storage Management (Oracle ASM), on systems running IBM AIX on POWER Systems (64-Bit).

Describes how to install and upgrade Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a cluster, which includes Oracle Clusterware and Oracle Automatic Storage Management (Oracle ASM), on systems running Microsoft Windows.

Introduces Oracle best practices for deploying a highly available environment, helps you determine your availability requirements, and describes the database architectures that can help your business achieve high availability.

Presents the Oracle C++ Call Interface, an application program interface that enables applications written in C++ to interact with one or more Oracle databases. To extend the functionality of code generated by the Object Type Translator, programmers may want to add code in the OTT-generated file. The OTT can distinguish between OTT-generated code and user-generated code by looking for some predefined markers (tags).

Presents reference information about writing Java applications using Oracle Multimedia to extract Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) metadata outside of the database, either on the client or in the middle tier.

Describes features of application development and integration using Oracle Database Advanced Queuing (AQ). This information applies to versions of the Oracle Database server that run on all platforms, unless otherwise specified.

Provides introductory, installation, post-installation configuration, and usage information for Oracle Database Extensions for .NET, which makes it possible to build and run .NET stored procedures or functions with Oracle Database for Microsoft Windows.

Describes Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server, which allows Oracle databases to be used as resource managers in distributed transactions. The guide describes its usage and configuration in a Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator environment.

Supplements the Oracle Database Programmer's Guide to the Oracle precompilers to provide additional information on how to develop FORTRAN programs that use the database languages SQL and PL/SQL to access and manipulate Oracle data.

Provides a graphical user interface (RASADM) that security administrators and developers using Real Application Security can use to develop end-to-end security for mid-tier applications. The RASADM application allows users to develop declarative data security policies to enforce access control requirements at the database layer to protect data at both the row and column levels. This approach allows developers to control application user access to data in Oracle database throughout all components of an Oracle enterprise in a common manner.

Describes how to implement Real Application Security on the database. Real Application Security is a new feature in Oracle Database 12c. Real Application Security is a database authorization model that enables end-to-end security for multitier applications. It provides an integrated solution to securing the database and application user communities. Also, it advances the security architecture of Oracle Database to meet existing and emerging demands of applications developed for the Internet.

Provides usage and reference information for the GeoRaster feature of Oracle Spatial and Graph, which lets you store, index, query, analyze, and deliver raster data (raster image and gridded data and its associated metadata).

Provides Javadoc-generated information about interfaces and classes that support features available with Oracle Spatial and Graph, including GeoRaster and the Topology Data Model and Network Data Model Graph features, and with the Map Visualization Component.

Describes how to use the Oracle Spatial and Graph map visualization component, which renders maps showing different kinds of spatial data. It is intended primarily for programmers who develop applications that require maps to be drawn.

Provides guidance to developers on SQLJ programming. This document can be read by anyone with an interest in SQLJ programming, but assumes at least some prior knowledge of Java, SQLJ, PL/SQL, and Oracle database.

Contains conceptual information about Oracle Streams and information about administering, monitoring, and troubleshooting an Oracle Streams environment. It also contains instructions for using Oracle Streams to record table changes. It also contains conceptual information about information provisioning and instructions for using Oracle Streams for information provisioning. It also includes instructions for using Oracle Streams for database upgrades and database maintenance operations.
